Font size

On Monday, students, faculty and Ithaca residents gathered outside Cornell to protest the school's handling of the case and demand justice for the victim, known as Jane Doe.

The incident was already reported to the police in 2024 when the suspected rape took place by the then 20-year-old woman. But it wasn't until two years later that the case would flare up properly and also gain international coverage - when the school's student newspaper revealed a new lawsuit against Cornell and the seven named men.

New information and evidence have led to the reopening of the investigation. It is now headed by New York Attorney General Letitia James.

In the video: follow SVT's USA correspondent Carl Fridh Kleberg to the elite Cornell University - the place where everything unfolded.

Open Questions

  • What is the outcome of the ongoing investigation?
  • Who are the seven designated men?

After the beating to death of Christian Zedig - trial today

On June 30, a 31-year-old man punched Christian Zedig in the neck in Copenhagen, causing a fatal bleeding in the artery. Although Zedig died a few days later, the charge is classified as assault of the normal degree according to Danish legal practice, which focuses on the intent of the blow itself and not on the consequences. The man was previously convicted of attempted murder and the Danish government is now considering a change in the law for lethal violence by repeat offenders. The trial begins after lunch and is expected to be completed in the late afternoon.
